Can anyone recommend me a keyboard. I'm kinda of a retired gamer, but interested to get a mech keyboard. I'm going to heavyarm's shop to test out the Cherry MX switches.

Currently thinking of the SteelSeries 7G. But if you sifus can recommend me something better (with backlight tongue.gif), then I will consider getting it.

Get Ducky DK9008G2Pro. For the switches, since you will be visiting the Heavyarm's store, try them all to your heart content, then choose what works best for you smile.gif

Woah this Ducky is heavily recommended buy you guys..
I'll definitely keep that in mind when buying it tomorrow.

Any other ones to look at?

And is this Ducky superior in terms of performance to the SS 7G?
It's *almost* the same price wise..

Ducky only makes Mech keyboards, so I would say so. Price wise the Rosewill RK9000 is super worth it, only RM299. No backlight tho.

I actually kinda like the Razer BW layout and lighting. Not too sure about the switches...

Also Razer BW is quite affordable but the matt finishing 'Stealth' version seems so overpriced..

Most people who own a BlackWidow, never go back to BlackWidow after they purchased Filco/Ducky. Go figure biggrin.gif

At least the price is cheaper than SteelSeries 7G, no?
Trigger is good but Heavyarm only has red and black switch, if I am not mistaken.

Anyone know CM Quickfire TK released in Msia ?
Asked heavy arm but no news about it...
What's the price then... Seems very good design with numpad combined with arrow key... Not the less backlit looks cool !
But lack of USB port and audio jack like blackwidow... Dilemma between two...

and, why don't you get a rosewill? why would you want to specially buy a g2pro just for partial backlit?

There are still good full keyboard out there, I have been told by one of the gh member carrying ducky from taiwan recommend not to get anymore ducky keyboards, their quality has dropped ever since 9008g2.


to the guy.

There are still pretty good keyboards out there. If you want quality, you can go for better quality keyboard, like a Das 2, there was a Das 2 sold for 50$ in GH which has better quality than most of the keyboards out there nowadays. unless you want bling... then the answer is pretty easy.

shouldn't be very expensive, it only costs 95$ only over here in australia, which goes to around RM330 perhaps?

Oh yeah, forgot Rosewill already lol sweat.gif, but well, some may prefer the NKRO over USB feature from G2Pro.
About the Ducky quality, any reliable source to confirm your statement? So far I had been reading good feedbacks about the boards.
I am using one myself too, and so far didn't find any problem except the feel of Cherry style stabilizer (or satellite switch), but that's just a personal preference and I am sure I will get used to it after a couple months of usage.

Anyway, it wasn't me who want to buy a new board, I was just suggesting a fellow forumer with some choices popped in my mind that time. I won't be getting anymore keyboard after this as my wallet is screaming already doh.gif

yeah, I know. meant no hard feelings. no reliable source to confirm my statement, but you'll know, I do feel that the ducky shine feels a bit flimsy compare to my 9008g2, i sold it shortly after i bought it, then last week i was thinking of getting a yotd, contacted the taiwan supplier and he recommended me not to get it, and told me there are better brands are there if i prefer quality.
